    Dan, I sometimes get in the car and start driving and then can't remember were I was going. They are called "Senior Moments" I seem to keep having more and more of them.

    Then I shock myself and remember things about controls and systems without looking them up, Hey I guess I am okay.

    Happy Birthday Tim!

    We all are in debt to you for your knowledge you pass on to us here.

    As far as senior moments go, 10 years ago I was only 59.
    I started to pull into the driveway of the house we moved out of 15 years before that, at those moments you just back up and head the other direction as if you borrowed the driveway to turn around.
    Now, if I go to the truck for tool/parts I carry something related to the needed item to remember. The nut for the wrench needed etc.

    May God bless you and your family for this Christmas.

    Thanks again.
